Retirement planning isn’t one-size-fits-all, and the question of “How much money do I REALLY need?” can feel overwhelming. But don’t worry—I’ve got you covered!

In this episode of Early Retirement Roadmap, I’m diving deep into the essential factors that determine your retirement number, including:
✅ How to calculate your annual retirement spending 🔢
✅ The 25x rule (and why it’s not enough for early retirees) 📊
✅ The impact of inflation, healthcare, and lifestyle choices on your savings 💸
✅ Common mistakes that can derail your retirement 🚧

I’ll also share my personal experience retiring at 55 years old, the lessons I learned along the way, and how you can create a plan that gives you true financial freedom.
